Republican politicians all piled into the clown car in the Washington debt circus yesterday by cancelling the scheduled vote in the House of Representatives on raising the debt ceiling. With the Democrat majority in the Senate threatening to veto the House bill hopes of any agreement were always very slim, but it will remain a [...]
